As a PTC subsidiary, ServiceMax provides Asset 360, a Salesforce-native application that adds asset-centric functionality and automation with complete visibility into field assets. The acquisition integrated ServiceMax's field service expertise into PTC's broader enterprise software portfolio, enabling service organizations to shift toward outcome-based business strategies.
